Couldn't we have had 1 war before installing the nerfs?
Honestly would've been completly fine with the nerfs after 1 real war with the buffs where players genuinly utilize given equipment and devs adjust performances from there depending on both player feedback and observing the war as a whole. This would've also greatly helped too the current lack in colonial population by bringing back many vets to try out the stronger equipment, and maybe sway some players from the wardens side to try out colonial next war.
I sorta get why they did it but personally devbrach isn't a proper simulation for real war since although its a testing grounds tests for large battles only rarely occur with much of the testing between small groups of players from both sides, but now we wouldn't really know if OP thing this or OP thing that has a significant outcome with the war as a whole since it had already been nerfed.
Sucks but its still the Dev's game in the end, what do people from both sides think abt this?
